Meeting of Polish artists with disabilities and D_deaf and allied people

Filip Pawlak, an expert collaborating with CK ZAMEK in the theatre programme implemented as part of the Europe Beyond Access international network, invites to a meeting of the community of Polish artists and artists with disabilities and G_deaf and allied people. The day after the premiere of the performance ‘Amoroso’ by the Klucz Theatre, there will be an opportunity to talk about the performance itself and about topics concerning artistic development and better networking inside and outside the communities.

The meeting will take the form of an open rehearsal where participants will have the chance to try out crip creative tools together, share feedback and talk about what a ‘crippling artistic perspective’ can be.

The „Crip networking” series is a series of open meetings and workshops for the Polish disabled/Deaf artistic community working in the field of performing arts aiming to professionalise their activities, raise awareness of their artistic practices and improve their professional competences. The series is led by Filip Pawlak as part of the „Krajowy Plan Odbudowy” grant.
